The state of Jalisco, Mexico marks the boundaries of the real 15th Military Zone, and its sweetheart or hub is Guadalajara. In the mid-seventies, around Guadalajara, Enrique Camareno, a DEA agent, was kidnapped, tortured and executed by Mexican Special Agents. This book begins several years before the Camareno affair, when psychedelics, free love, and a haze of happy smoke fulfilled our desires. A true story, The 15th Military Zone is an animated narrative, dialogue and narrative combined, told in a Runyonesque third person voice, toned with dark-humored irony. There are moments when the third person's eye has a glimpse of his own soul and finds it's a mirror of every man's soul. Experience is the rock that every man stands on to view his future dreams.
